The MEDILAB High Alumina Combustion Boat with Tail and Hole is a precision-engineered ceramic vessel designed for high-temperature analytical processes. It is widely used for combustion, ashing, elemental analysis, and thermal decomposition studies. Its robust high-alumina construction ensures stability, minimal contamination, and accurate results, making it essential for laboratories, research centres, and industrial testing environments.

 Key Features

• High-purity alumina composition ensures excellent thermal resistance and chemical inertness.
• Tail and side hole design for easy handling, positioning, and optimized airflow during combustion.
• Stable performance up to extremely high temperatures without warping or deformation.
• Smooth internal surface to minimize sample loss and enhance cleaning efficiency.
• High mechanical strength suitable for repeated heating cycles.
• Low thermal expansion ensures dimensional stability during rapid temperature changes.
• Corrosion- and wear-resistant, ideal for use with oxidizing and reducing atmospheres.
